Recipes for Meat Loaf and a Tomato-Corn Casserole and they are Diabetic Friendly
These recipes can bake in your oven at the same time allowing you to prepare your meal almost totally in the oven while you go on about your business. No need to stand over the stove to prepare this meal of Dot's Meat Loaf and Tomato-Corn Casserole. Since the casserole is chock full of vegetables, you only need to serve with your favorite Green Salad for a complete meal. Both recipes are also okay for diabetics. The meal loaf has no high-carb filler as most do which makes it especially good for diabetics.
DOT'S MEAT LOAF
2 lb ground sirloin
4 eggs
2 medium onions, chopped
2 cups tomato juice
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Put the eggs in a large Mixing Bowl and beat well. Add the ground sirloin , onions, salt, pepper, and tomato juice. Using your hands, mix together well. Form into a loaf in a Baking Pan and bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until browned and cooked through.
CORN AND TOMATO CASSEROLE
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
2 tsp butter, melted
1 tbsp flour
2/3 cup low-fat milk
1/2 tsp salt
couple dashes of black pepper
1/8 tsp dried basil
1/8 tsp dried oregano
1 can (appox. 16-oz ) whole tomatoes, drained
1 pkg (10-oz) frozen peas and pearl onions, slightly thawed
1 can (12-oz) whole kernel corn, drained
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large saucepan, saute the bell pepper and garlic in the butter until pepper is tender. Add the flour, stirring until smooth. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in the milk; add salt, pepper, basil and oregano. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thickened and bubbly. Stir in the tomatoes, peas and onions, and the corn. Remove from the heat.
Spray a 2-quart Casserole Dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon the heated mixture into the dish and bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
Enjoy!

size of Loaf Pan?
I am planning on making a meat loaf tonight and the recipe says to put it in a loaf pan but I do not have one. Is there another size pan that would be ok? What are the dimensions of a loaf pan? We have an 8x11 pan, would that work? or 8x8?
You can shape it into a loaf shape and put it in the 8x11 pan... it's less messy that way anyway (because all of the fat and goop gets to fall away from the meatloaf). I never cook meatloaf in a loaf pan.
Good luck!
